Unleash Your Project Meeting Potential Project managers spend a significant amount of time leading meetings but rarely leverage these valuable opportunities to their full potential. Instead, meetings provide the greatest source of anxiety, frustration and stress. Meetings fail to produce optimal results; participants feel that their time isn't valued; and project managers often miss opportunities to advance initiatives or demonstrate skills in leadership and communication. High-functioning meetings drive value, build collaborative relationships, and successfully move organizational priorities forward. As project managers, we need to take accountability for maximizing these opportunities to achieve successful outcomes and meet the needs of our stakeholders. In this session, we'll focus on key activities, a practical methodology, and best practices that you can adopt to consistently and skillfully plan, lead and follow up on effective meetings. You'll walk away with actionable steps that they can be implemented immediately to unleash your own meeting potential.b What You Will Learn: A mindset shift around how you think about and approach meetings to strengthen key skills, build collaborative relationships, and be recognized for your leadership Standardized methodology to consistently plan, lead and follow up on high-functioning, effective meetings for all of your projects Highly actionable steps and best practices that you can implement right away and set yourself up for success

Strategic Initiative Project Management: Using Projects to Create Business Value The business side of projects has grown significantly. Project management is used on projects related to strategic planning, and project managers are reporting to the senior-most levels of management and even into corporate boardrooms. Traditional project management practices that have existed for decades may not be appropriate for strategic initiative projects. Project managers must learn how to use a new family of metrics capable of measuring business value, creativity and innovation. Executives that sit on project governance committees or are part of the Portfolio Project Management Office must understand how to use these new metrics to make informed decisions. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
